Mitt Romney appeared on Univision's "Meet the Candidate" event on Wednesday evening to talk about issues of importance to Latino voters, including immigration, education and foreign policy. But thousands of bloggers, Facebook subscribers and Twitter users across the country focused more on the candidate's complexion than on his message.

Some called it an orange spray tan, others labeled it "brownface," but the conjecture was the same. Social media platforms were abuzz on Wednesday with the insinuation that the GOP candidate had somehow darkened his skin before coming on Univision's forum. The accusation was reported on by The Huffington Post, Gawker and Wonkette, among others, receiving thousands of comments on the sites combined. Here at ABC/Univision, we wanted to clear the air a bit and find out what really happened.

So we asked the man who saw it first hand -- makeup artist Lazz Rodriguez, who applied powder and concealer to the candidate's skin that night. The verdict?

"When he walked in, I remember thinking, 'Wow this is tanner than I thought he was,' but I think he's just been outside a lot lately for his campaign," Rodriguez noted. "It was definitely a real tan."

Rodriguez has been a makeup artist for 25 years, and has applied cosmetics to hundreds of famous faces, including many celebrities and politicians, and a handful of presidents.

"Clinton was definitely the fairest-skinned of politicians I've worked with," he said. "But Romney was a lot darker than I expected," he said.

Rodriguez says that his makeup of choice for the evening was MAC NW30, a medium-range loose powder that he applies to "cut the glare" of stage lights.

The ABC/Univision News team decided to investigate the claims that Romney was wearing powder that was too dark, stopping in at the local Miami MAC store after Thursday's "Meet the Candidate" event with Obama to test out the exact make and model. Indeed, we concluded after various trials that the NW30 was a medium-ranged hue that looked natural on a range of beige skin tones. The color was perhaps a tad too dark on Politics Editor Jordan Fabian, just about right on reporter Julia Saenz, and a shade too light on Miami-boy and Managing Editor Fernando Rodriguez-Vila. But, even when we caked the stuff on, NW30 wasn't notably dark on a range of skin tones under harsh lights.

Rodriguez says that after hearing of the controversy, he spent time looking up pictures of the candidate online, and noticed that he had been tan days prior to the event -- even at his press conference in regards to the controversial "47 percent" remarks. Romney had indeed been travelling in sunny states in the weeks before the Univision event, stopping in Pueblo, Colorado, on Sunday; Los Angeles, California, on Monday; and Texas on Tuesday.

But many criticized the candidate for the tan, saying it was unique to his Univision appearance. Wonkette wrote, "So! Self-tanner 'accident'? Makeup lady that needs firing? Or did John Boehner take him tanning for a little pick-me-up? He has been having a very hard week."

Yohana de la Torre, the director of specialty media for the Romney for President campaign, declined to say why the candidate was notably tan, but said that the conversation over Romney's skin tone obscures more important issues in the campaign.

This is what the media is reporting on? Wow.

Federal govt. spending 10.6 billion dollars every day (of which almost 4 billion is borrowed), people are out of work and need jobs, the Arab world is up in arms against us, we have troops all over the world and drones flying overhead killing people, we have more of our citizens imprisoned (thank you "drug war") than any country on earth, we are being searched at airports, erc....

But Mitt Romney's handlers wanted him to not look too pale under the camera lights and got him a spray tan!
NotwTHAT is real reporting!

Robbie 09-21-2012 03:34 PM
Ironically...it looks like Romney was right about the "47%" as he and Obama are in a tie at 47% each no matter how much the media tries to say he is having another "bad week" lol

Non-story. It's this kind of crap that shows the news media for the ratings whore entertainment industry that it had become. This is the kind of thing comedy central should make fun of.. But a supposedly reputable news outlet? Sad and pathetic. If Romney gets a pedicure that isn't news either...

Brujah 09-21-2012 09:42 PM
Don't blame the media. It's our fault. They give us whatever we want because that's where the ratings are.

jigg 09-21-2012 11:05 PM
guess his campaign felt he was too white for the Univision audience
funny shit

oh no really you sure Ramney does thought?

mineistaken 09-22-2012 06:23 AM
I guess he was trying to appeal to brown lovers.
Jokes aside - I do not see it that bad looking, to be honest I would not even notice those "white lines" in the pictures posted. And what does the hand photo mean? Looks normal.

it is kinda stupid but its not that his handlers didn't want him to look pale under the camera lights, its that his handlers didn't want him to look too pale to latinos. pretty coincidental that he does this right beforehand.

What's funny is how you WANT to believe the hype. He's been under camera lights for YEARS and he just happens to look orange in front of a bunch of Latinos where is is trailing badly with. This is coming from you who also excused romney for not revealing his tax returns revealing loopholes that he says he will close but will give no specifics. He's also 7 points behind here in Ohio and no president has won without Ohio, which is why Romney is coming back here yet again. You also know that a national poll means dick when there is an ELECTORAL COLLEGE process not a raw popular vote process right? You dont remember the Gore/Bush "hanging chad" fiasco in florida? Al gore won the popular vote by 500,000 votes! See when Obama fucks up and it's reported, I dont ignore facts and atempt to spin it like you do. In fact I'm sure if I took the time out to search, I will find you clamoring for obamas birth certificate. Your quote right above is a prime example of a man who is willing to ignore the fact that the emperor wears no clothes. And if that helps you sleep better at night, more power to you. It still doesn't mean that the sky isn't still blue and the grass isn't still green.

Why do you hate 47% of the American people?

I don't see it reported very much. And if it is...his fuck ups are reported once and then they move on.

And you can search all you want..you will never find me involved in "birther" stupidity.

And this isn't Mitt Romney fucking up. It's the media reporting everything BUT the real issues.
It doesn't matter to any of us in real life whether Mitt Romney got a spray tan...or if Obama suddenly uses a Southern accent and preacher-type cadence when he addresses crowds in the South....

NONE of that has anything to do with what is wrong with our govt.

You are the one blindly defending Obama, but the problem is I didn't attack him. I simply pointed out that the media is doing everything they can to get Obama re-elected because most of them are Democrats.

I voted FOR Obama in 2008. I'm hard pressed to find any reason to vote for him again.
I'm not happy with the Republican party either.

I am plain out ANTI-religion. I think it's a big problem in our world.
I'm also sick and tired of our country spending trillions of a giant military. It's bullshit.

I pretty much do not agree with even ONE thing the Republicans have for social policy.

On the other hand...besides abortion and gay rights...the Dems aren't much better. :(

That guy looks so FAKE, lol...

As fake as most hollywood actors over-produced with MAKE UP...

Anyways, USA is specialist in MAKE UP Production and in make up artists...

It's increadible how the all the USA girls and women are PRO's at MAKE UP.

You take the average asian girl that in Philipines uses no make up at all, you take her to USA and she becomes a MAKE UP PRO in months..

PIRIOD.

The majority of US political and US conspiracy threads on this board are started by a few Canadians and Euros, I'll never understand it. They never start any threads nor discuss anything related to their own country's politics, yet they are involved in almost anything related to US politics. They love to tell us what our country is doing wrong and how we as US citizens are all being duped by our government.
